Scouting Mission to India and the New Delhi World Book Fair (2008)

Our objective in organizing a scouting mission to New Delhi was to report on India as a potential market for Canadian publishers in terms of right sales and distribution. In view of the increasing interest in India, and taking into account that the New Delhi World Book Fair is held every two years, 2008 presented a great opportunity for the Association and the Canadian book publishing industry to seek trusted intelligence on the Indian market.

This report, written by the delegation of publishers who visited New Delhi in February 2008, includes a profile of the Scholarly and Trade perspective, of the French-language Trade perspective, and of the Children’s book trade perspective.
